About Us

The Mountain States Regional Office has been fulfilling the Anti-Defamation League's mission "to stop the defamation of the Jewish people…to secure justice and fair treatment to all," in Colorado and Wyoming for the past 66 years.

We do this by: confronting anti-Semitism; fighting for the separation of church and state; standing up for all victims of discrimination; shining the light on hate groups; advocating for Israel and peace in the Middle East; training teachers, students and police officers, educating about the Holocaust; fighting for religious freedom; supporting stronger hate crimes legislation; speaking out against bigotry; promoting interfaith dialogue; protecting Jewish institutions; and preserving democratic values.

ADL's Education Division focuses on three primary programmatic areas: anti-bias education, confronting anti-Semitism, and Holocaust education. Through our A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE® Institute, we customize programs that provide the necessary skills, knowledge and awareness to promote and sustain inclusive and respectful school, work and home environments for schools, universities, corporations, community-based organizations, and law enforcement agencies.

Unveiled in 2008, our No Place for Hate® program was developed to organize schools to work together and develop projects that enhance the appreciation of diversity and foster harmony amongst diverse groups by empowering them to promote respect for individual and group differences while challenging prejudice and bigotry.
